Subject popularity varies by gender and over time, as well as qualification and level or stage. These charts show subjects that fell within the top five selected by pupils each year for each qualification (excluding English and Maths). Relatively larger points indicate higher popularity for a particular qualification, and position on the horizontal axis how often a subject was selected across all qualifications over the years. For instance, 100% popularity (on the far right) indicates a subject was in the top 5 every year from 1986 and for all qualifications. Subject popularity overall is also ordered top to bottom.
